I Suppose A Condom's Out Of The Question.

'It's my right to have unprotected sex with anyone, anytime so don't judge me when I get some disease because it's all your fault' lisped a precious darling.

SP, //There was a sizeable minority who did not, claiming it impinged on their freedoms.//

Yes … and much to be admired in the 'to hell with anyone else' attitude.... don't you think?

//Not anyone, just you.//

Oh my! That's telling. Are the powers that be aware that one of their trusted mods harbours bigotry towards one specific member of this website?

[sp1814]

Ha ha PP...even your short answers confuse the hell out of me

er covid doesnt equal monkey pox.... rather obvious to me with biology O level, so the lessons drawn may be limited

[naomi24]

SP, //What did you mean? //

If you'd taken the trouble to read my subsequent post you would know what I meant. Give it a go.

as monkeypox has a vaccine the most responsible thing to do is to get vaccinated and yes limit sexual partners… gay/bi men are queueing up for the vaccine, don’t know about the second one but it’s not as if they are ignoring the threat like those who refused masks and distancing and sometimes vaccines

This?

"That's not homophobia, untitled. It's the truth. And it applies across the board - male, female, gay, or straight."

That doesn't explain your earlier statement.

You were talking SPECIFICALLY about gay men not having dignity and self-respect.

You wrote (my italics):

Doubtless most of the rest of society could get just as much if they also chose to abandon their dignity and self respect.

In that statement you were talking about gay man right?

nope

they all bigoted in equal measure - ter daah !

can we stop playing the victim card please? no I know we wont

[Peter Pedant]

limit sex partners
yes they can
with HIV it was doubted vay much whether an ad campaign could affect screwing around

and it did ( screw around and die!) to everyone's amazement

“ Doubtless most of the rest of society could get just as much if they also chose to abandon their dignity and self respect. ”

the above sentence is an irrelevant opinion that gay and bi men “abandon their dignity and self-respect” by being promiscuous… which has nothing to do with dignity or self-respect… the only purpose for it is to express contempt or at least negative judgement which is of zero value if your priority is to contain monkeypox

You've been caught out.

SP, //In that statement you were talking about gay man right?//

Indeed I was - in response to this….

//it has spread among gay/bi men because lf the number of sexual partners…//

//gay men who are promiscuous tend to have far far more sex partners than straight people who are promiscuous//

//even straight people who sleep around do not tend to have as many sexual partners as gay/bi men//

Dream on, SP. I disagree with you. Get used to it.

I beg to differ.

Are you say that the promiscuity gay men means they have abandoned their dignity and self-respect?

[naomi24]

SP, Anyone who leads a promiscuous lifestyle has abandoned dignity and respect - in my opinion - which, despite your efforts to silence, I am entitled to.

[sp1814]

naomi24

It's not something I've observed, but I suppose everyone has their own opinion based on what they know.

[naomi24]

Yes they do.

[Untitled]

that’s just what it is though….an opinion…. and one that is not relevant to containing monkeypox… which is still a public health problem regardless of what your moral opinions about gay sex are

you appear to have seen a thread about promiscuity among gay/bi men being a vector for monkeypox and could not resist letting the world know how little you think of them even though it is not relevant… homophobia

[sp1814]

And one thing (very important). I am not a moderator and you really shouldn't go around saying things like that - it can impact on how others interact

[naomi24]

Promiscuity doesn't help, does it. You've said yourself that it would be better if gay men reduced the number of sexual partners they have. Furthermore, you're the one who over several posts have told us all about how gay men are far more promiscuous than other groups but nevertheless you bandy that convenient word 'homophobia' around so freely when someone who doesn't necessarily support your cause, per se, agrees with you. You're meeting yourself coming back - again.

SP, good. I'm pleased to hear it.

[sp1814]

I think I can clarify what you meant which would make sense to everyone.

You're not saying that ALL gay men lack dignity and self-respect...just the promiscuous ones.

Is that right?

[naomi24]

//You're not saying that ALL gay men lack dignity and self-respect...just the promiscuous ones. //

That is right, SP.
